I had forgotten to format the drive as FAT32 before running the utility, but I also managed to not check the box next to “We will format G:\Drive as FAT32.” in the utility itself. When I ran syslinux.exe -maf G:, I got a much more informative message, or at least one that I could better understand: this doesn’t look like a valid FAT filesystem.Īnd of course, the flash drive wasn’t FAT32, it was NTFS. When I opened a command prompt and ran syslinuxnew.exe -maf G:, the result was zero FAT sectors. The message in the command line window read:Įxecute: C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Temp\.tmp\syslinuxnew.exe -maf G:Ī message box would then appear with the following warning:Īn error(1) occurred while executing syslinux. I was trying to create a bootable flash drive with Ubuntu 11.04 using the Universal USB Installer 1.8.6.3 utility from on a Windows 7 64-bit machine with a 16 GB flash drive (mapped to G:), but I kept getting an error that the drive wouldn’t be bootable.
